The Samsung Galaxy A8s will be announced on Monday at an event in China. Ahead of the release, the phone’s full specifications have been revealed by China’s communication agency, TENAA, along with some photos.
The Galaxy A8s will come with a 6.39-inch 2340 x 1080 display. Unlike other phones in the A-series, this is not a Super AMOLED display but an LCD panel. However, it is the first phone to come with Samsung’s Infinity-O Display.
The phone will be powered by an octa-core processor with four cores clocked at 2.2GHz and the other four clocked at 1.7GHz. The chipset is said to be the Snapdragon 710 which powers phones like the Mi 8 SE and the Nokia 8.1/X7. The processor is paired with 6GB/ 8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage irrespective of the RAM variant you purchase.

The three cameras – 24MP + 5MP + 10MP – share a single housing and there is an LED flash below the setup. However, the middle camera has a yellow ring around it that seems to be another LED flash but we are not sure. About a centimeter to the left of the cameras is a fingerprint scanner and in front of the phone, nestled within the hole in the screen is a 24MP camera for selfies and video calls.

The Galaxy A8s will run Android 8.1 Oreo out of the box according to TENAA and pack a 3,300mAh battery. It will come in black but the images provided are of a silver-dark blue gradient variant. The back appears to be metal but it’s most probably glass. The phone weight is given as 173 grams and its dimensions are 158.4 x 74.9 x 7.4 mm.
